In depth
Verdict
After a couple of fair runs, MUTHABIR (NAP) should now be ready to properly do himself justice and looks a threat to all over his optimum distance. Handsome Dan only found an in-form rival too good at Market Rasen in September but a 5lb rise looks harsh. Allbarnone usually reserves his best for Cartmel and lacks a recent outing, as does Little Chunk and also Quieto Sol, while Boy In A Bentley turned in a shocker last time at Sedgefield. Tempuran won on the Flat in the summer and has been thereabouts over hurdles since. Racing off the same mark as when runner-up at Taunton, he has Charlie Hammond's claim in his favour again so can't be ignored.
